Stitch Characteristics
- Shortest basic stitch
- Creates a firm, compact fabric
- Very small gaps between stitches
- Slower to work up compared to taller stitches
The US single crochet (sc) or UK double crochet (dc) is the shortest and most basic crochet stitch.
It creates a tight, dense fabric with very little stretch, making it perfect for projects that need structure and durability.
On my YouTube channel I have a Start Your Crochet Journey playlist for beginners.
